Everything was great, Excellent view however working ping pong balls for the advertised table would have been nice. And the towels in the basement smelled so bad, I had to wash before I could use

We needed a place where we could gather with our kids and friends for a week and the house was perfect for us. Well appointed, beautiful views and close to many amenities and restaurants. This is an easy recommendation.

A beautiful property and home right on the water! We stayed here with multiple families and there was enough space to spread out and be comfortable together or have some quiet space. The rooms are a perfect size and everything we needed was there. We loved that it was removed from the hustle bustle of the city but it’s close enough to go and soak that up too. We had a fantastic vacation!

Cranberry Cottage 5 stars!!

Easy entry process, roomy, beautiful, gorgeous views...Our 9 day stay was relaxing and laid back. We are far enough away for privacy and quiet also a close enough drive to shopping and all kinds of restaurants and attractions. Thank you Jeanne!!

Wonderful Stay!

What a gorgeous home right along the water. What a treat it was to overlook the bay as I sipped my morning coffee. There was a great game room/play room for the kids. Very well thought out and stocked. Thank you again for welcoming us into your home.

Awesome view and house space

Great place to stay with family and friends! House is very spacious with awesome observation deck, fire pit spot to hang out, several games to enjoy! The only suggestion would be is to make check out time at least an hour later. (to give guests a little extra time to enjoy this great property :)) Strongly recommended! Loved our time there!

Beautiful property. The house had everything we needed, well designed and furnished. The kitchen had everything we needed for large family meals. And the ocean view was fantastic. We loved sitting out in the deck in the morning and evening and the kids loved trying to catch crabs on the water and climbing rocks. Amazing place and we look forward to staying here again!
